Description
If I create a new docker bridge network and enable IPv6 with an IPv6 subnet, dockerd will throw the following error:
dockerd[950]: time="2019-08-14T21:42:37.959110928+02:00" level=error msg="Could not add route to IPv6 network fddd:0:0:1234::/64 via device dnetTest"
The route itself was created and it is working fine.

Start by reproducing the issue with a new Docker bridge network using IPv6 and an IPv6 subnet, then trace the route-add path that emits the shown dockerd error. Done means the working IPv6 route is handled without reporting a spurious error.
